Accreditation and Rankings

Accreditation

The College of Public Health at George Mason University is undergoing a review by CEPH for an initial accreditation. Part of this process includes a provision of a third-party comment period, which allows anyone, including students, alumni, faculty, staff, community and practice partners, and members of the public, to share relevant information about the school directly with CEPH.  

If you have any information about the school you would like to share with CEPH to inform their review, send your comments to submissions@ceph.org by November 4, 2024.
